A legal industry report released today by the sibling legal technology companies LawPay and MyCase provides unique insights into the technology tools that matter most to smaller law firms in the post-pandemic era.
While the report finds that law firms have largely recovered from pandemic-related declines in revenues, it concludes that, with regard to technology, the pandemic “drastically impacted” its use by law firms.
“Law firms’ investment in technology — especially technology that enabled remote work — occurred at rates never before seen,” the report says. “Many experts have suggested that the pandemic’s effects may have accelerated technology adoption by as much as a decade.”
In reaching this conclusion, the report drills down into the types of software that smaller firms are using and consider important, demonstrating that the majority of firms have moved to the cloud and are committed to technologies that facilitate remote working.
The 2022 Legal Industry Report was compiled by the electronic payments company LawPay and the law practice management company MyCase, both of which are owned by AffiniPay, based on a survey of more than 2,300 legal professionals during August and September.
It also builds on a three-part Benchmark Report series that MyCase published earlier this year, using anonymized data from MyCase customers, including data showing credit card and ACH payments processed by law firms since 2019.
Of the survey respondents, 42% were from firms with 2-5 lawyers, 45% were solos, 7% were from firms with 6-10 lawyers, 3% were from firms with 11-20 lawyers, 1% were from firms with 21-50 lawyers, and 2% were from firms with more than 51 attorneys.
The report was written by Nicole Black, lawyer and senior director of SME and external education at AffiniPay (and a panelist on our Legaltech Week podcast).
With regard to adoption of cloud-based software, overall use of cloud software rose from 73% before the pandemic to 80% today. While that, alone, may not seem like a dramatic change, consider that 57% of respondents reported that their firms invested in cloud computing tools during the past year because of the effects of the pandemic.
As for which types of cloud software law firms have in place, the most popular is law practice management software, used by 87% of respondents, followed by electronic payment software, used by 50% of respondents.
Other types of cloud software used by firms:
An interesting finding with regard to several of these categories of software is that firms are using generic consumer products to a greater extend than they are legal-specific products. For example, when asked how their firms handle accounting, half said they use consumer accounting software. Just 18% use accounting features built into their practice management system and just 4% use legal-specific accounting software (which I assume means standalone products).
Similarly, for document storage, 50% use consumer products such as Dropbox or Google Docs, while only 6% use legal-specific products such as NetDocuments or iManage.
For document automation, only 7% use legal-specific document automation software, while 41% used consumer software (a category in which the survey includes HotDocs), and 27% use no document automation software at all.
While the list above indicates that 11% of firms are using cloud-based CRM software, the survey found that only 2% use standalone, legal-specific lead-intake software, and that 44% of firms use no lead-intake software of any kind.
A key focus of the report is on law firms’ adoption of remote-work software. The survey found that 47% of respondents said that their firms added new remote working technologies to their IT stack within the past year as a direct result of the pandemic. Additionally, 70% of respondents said that remote working tools were part of their firm’s long-term business continuity strategy.
In a version of this survey that MyCase conducted in 2021, it found that firms had already increased their usage of remote-working tools, But this year, the survey found, firms made even greater investments in remote-working tools. The chart below shows some of the most popular options that saw a significant increase in adoption.

“These trends indicate that law firms have moved on from piecemeal adoption and are now implementing robust, long-term remote working solutions into their law firms,” the report says. “Doing so ensures efficiency in the here and now and provides predictability and business resiliency in times of future uncertainty.”
Consistent with other industry surveys, this report concludes that one of the top categories of software that saw an increase due to the pandemic was online payments.

According to the survey, “the vast majority of firms (84%) now accept credit cards and ACH payments from clients using online payment tools.”
In addition, the majority of firms (75%) use legal-specific payment tools, with 39% using standalone software, 35% using payment processing software built into their practice management systems, and 7% using payment processing software built into a legal billing platform.
At a time when clients are increasingly seeking flexible payment options, firms are responding in kind, the survey finds. It finds that 15% of respondents reported that their firms offer clients the option of paying legal fees using loans. Another 34% said they do not yet provide that option but were open to the idea. More common is offering clients payment plays, which 61% of respondents’ law firms do.
The survey also finds that firms saw tangible benefits from accepting online payments. Sixty-one percent of respondents said that their firms collected more money because of online payments, with 25% saying they collected “significantly more money.” In addition, the survey found that firms that accept online payments had their invoices paid 32% faster than firms that do not.
One topic this survey explored that I have not seen before in other surveys is the impact of mergers and acquisitions among legal technology companies. Anyone who reads this blog knows that there has been substantial M&A activity in legal tech over the past few years, and particularly in the area of law practice management.

In fact, it was just this year that LawPay parent AffiniPay’s acquisition of MyCase brought the two companies together that produced this survey report. And that was just one of several acquisitions involving law practice management companies.
But the majority of small firm lawyers were largely unaware of all this M&A activity and unsure of its impact on them.
Only 31% of respondents said that they knew about all the recent legal technology consolidation that had occurred since 2020. Nearly half were unsure whether the effects of consolidation would be positive or negative, while 38% viewed them favorably and 17% negatively.
I encourage you to download and read the full report, which goes into a number of other areas than I have covered here, including email marketing, reception services, e-filing, integrations, and outsourcing.
Thanks to technology adoption, firms are now better situated to withstand uncertain times, the report concludes.
“They have laid the foundation for business success by implementing key technology functionalities that will drive efficiency and growth in their firms in the long term.”

From the Nasdaq MarketSite studio, Bill McGann, Chief Technology Officer of Quantum Computing, Inc. (NASDAQ: QUBT) ($QUBT) (“QCI”) talks with New to The Street’s Co-Hosts Jane King and Hunter Gaylor. Engineers and scientists use quantum computers to solve some of mankind’s more complex problems. But Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) computers are significantly limited in their usefulness for solving complex real-world problems. Bill explains what makes Quantum Computing different than competitor products and how the Company’s Entropy Quantum Computer (EQC) is a revolutionary approach to quantum computing. EQC uses the environment’s noise sources, which other quantum computer systems ignore or cannot process, and optimizes that data to solve complex problems with multiple variables. Inventory supply chains, transportation logistics, finance, and medical services are industries with many variables interacting that need a reliable and affordable solution for problems. Bill explains a case study using EQC with a bank looking to improve monetary fraud detection and how the Company successfully helped the bank with new fraud alert tools. Many other industries can quickly deploy a ready-to-run QCI solution. With a low environmental footprint, hardware that runs at room temperature, and processes solutions based on all input variables, Quantum Computing, Inc. can offer time-sensitive solutions without extraordinary cost to deploy.

New to The Street airs TV Host Jane King’s Nasdaq MarketSite studio interview with VRM BioLogik Group’s Founder, Ken Bellamy, and CEO, Kellie Walters. Ken talks about the 2023 COP28 Climate Change Conference and explains to viewers the leadership initiative in Dubai with a desert waste program. Using VRM BioLogiks hydrosynthesis technology and The Sustainable Green Team (OTCQX: SGTM) ($SGTM) mulching methods, the small desert area is growing water and significantly improving soil nutrients and microbes. From the air, one can see the improved soil composition compared to the surrounding desert, capable of growing crops. Kellie talks about the invitation to SGTM’s inaugural global summit in Florida on December 15-16, 2022. As featured guests and keynote speakers, VRM explains the business collaboration and relationship between VRM and SGTM. SGTM has a distribution agreement with VRM to bring products and technology into the North American market. Kellie sees the summit as a great venue to explain the HumiSoil product that greatly improves all soil types and increases worldwide agricultural yields. Ken details how both human and organic waste can be used together and treated accordingly to create usable soils for crop yields. The US retail market for small farms and home gardeners is great for HumiSoil. With the US drought, lawns and gardens can use a product that grows water and maintains and improves the soil. The Company expects a fantastic 2023 operational year and remains steadfast on its mission of restoring topsoil’s water content and nutrition for 25% of the globe’s arable lands, millions of acres worldwide.

Andy Ross, Chairman/CEO of America Rebel, Inc. (NASDAQ: AREB) ($AREB), is back on New to The Street giving a corporate update. Speaking with TV Host Jane King from the Nasdaq MarketSite studio, Andy talks about the Company’s “American Made” products and why he believes American Rebel is “America’s Patriotic Brand.” With gun safes, weapon lockers, concealed-carry weapons (CCW) apparel and backpacks, and its e-bike, sales continue to grow strongly. The Company has five distribution centers and about 400 retail outlets selling American Rebel products. Andy explains the recent acquisition of the original equipment manufacturer of the Champion and Superior products and how that is accretive to The Company’s operations. For ten years, Andy had an Outdoor Cable channel show about bow hunting; as the show grew, he wrote songs played during those TV airings. His one song, “American Rebel” inspired him to start the Company in 2015. The Company’s goal is to create all sorts of “American Rebel” products to grow their brand name recognition. The Company’s e-bike is just one example of a branded product they sell. The e-bike market is growing, and the high-quality bike and its price-point constitute a good consumer purchase. American Rebel will feature its e-bike and other products at the upcoming SHOT trade show in Las Vegas in January 2023.

From the Nasdaq MarketSite studio, TV Host Jane King and viewers learn more from Hempacco Co., Inc.’s (NASDAQ: HPCO) ($HPCO) Sandro Piancone, Co-Founder/CEO, and Dr. Stuart Titus, Chairman. The Company’s hemp Disrupting Tobacco™ products are hemp cigarettes, smoked in place of tobacco products. The worldwide tobacco industry is a $1T marketplace, and the Company’s Disrupting Tobacco™ products are working on gaining market share. Sandro talks about HPCO’s joint venture with High Sierra Technologies, Inc. created a JV entity, Organipure, Inc. Using High Sierra Technology’s proprietary smell removal technique, Organipure, Inc. establishes a hemp product, “Smell-Free.” Many don’t like the smell of hemp and cannabis when smoked. During the segment, Jane smelled two hemp containers, one naturally occurring and the other treated with Organipure’s smell removal technology. The odorless-hemp product can now compete in public spaces, where smoking it without the smell like cannabis can ensue. Sandro explains that casinos in Vegas are constantly asking people not to smoke marijuana in their casinos, hemp is not marijuana, but it does smell similar. Dr. Titus explains how CBD can infuse more rapidly for immediate relaxation from smoking hemp. The Company can add terpenoids and other flavors to the hemp and its rolling papers. Marketing the “Smell–Free” hemp cigarettes is an add-on to the marketing of its smokable hemp products. The successful celebrity joint venture partnerships with Cheech & Chong and Rick Ross now can offer the “Smell-Free” cigarettes in addition to the Real Stuff, Hemp Hop, and Hemp Smokable products. Since the passing of The US Farm Bill of 2018, the possibility of using hemp cigarettes as a smoking sensation has been gaining popularity. Hempacco is the first hemp product company that trades on the Nasdaq. With over 64 million Americans using some form of CBD product, the overall market demographics are strong for continued growth at the Company.

Mr. Justin Waiau, Project Manager at LGCY Network (CRYPTO: LGCY) ($LGCY) and CEO at Quantum International Corp. (OTCPink: QUAN) ($QUAN) / LootUP is back at the Nasdaq MarketSite studio for an interview with TV Host Jane King. Justin gives an update regarding the $LECY blockchain ecosystem, which enables end-users and developers to participate and create using a dAPP blockchain. The network updated its wallet extensions, integrated the newest API, made an informative developers guide, and is working on new product roll-outs. The Company’s LootUp App, based on the LGCY blockchain, offers a unique and innovative payment platform that never holds end-users funds and is not vulnerable to account shutdowns or freezes. LootUp end users are increasingly enjoying the many benefits of this P2P non-custodial blockchain payment app. A new product app, the CannaLootUp App, based on the LootUp ecosystem, is coming to market soon. The cannabis industry needs a payment system independent of the legacy financial platforms. CannaLootUp App can solve many problems in buying/selling cannabis products because of its non-custodial feature, and the wallet owner of the App have complete control of their assets. The cannabis industry is a strong growing market with many financial needs that can use the unique features built into the CannaLootUp App. Like the LootUp app, the CannaLootUp offers simplified features, which enable end-users to send payments through their approved whitelisted names and confirm/cancel a transaction. It provides invoicing with built-in Smart Contracts for ease and efficiency in purchasing goods/services. Even though 2022 is a tough market for the blockchain and crypto industries, Justin sees a strong 2023 ahead with the growth of LGCY Network’s ecosystem.

New to The Street welcomes Golden Developing Solutions, Inc.’s (OTCPink: DVLP) ($DVLP) Chief Executive Officer, Stavros Triant. Talking with TV Host Jane King, Stavros gives viewers information about the Company’s history and how they entered the “Specialty Pharmacy” market. The Company migrated from being a cannabis health and wellness company into a health and wellness specialty pharmaceutical entity. With assets and a technology platform owned in the Telemedicine industry, the Company established relationships with physician groups and pharmacy networks. Currently, post-COVID, telemedicine is a crowded industry space, and the Company decided to hold off on a full-roll out until a more favorable time in the future. But the relationships established during the telemedicine platform’s development opened the door to an opportunity in the specialty pharmaceutical market. New drugs with great health restorative benefits are available but not accessible by many or health insurance approved. Local pharmacy outlets sometimes don’t carry these new novel drugs, so a doctor will subscribe an older, less effective drug to a patent, limiting a patient’s access to the latest drug treatments. Stavros says the Company’s online specialty pharmacy can enable patients to get the best drug innovation, bypassing a local pharmacy. The specialty pharmaceutical marketplace is a fragmented industry made up of small businesses in local demographics. DVLP is aggressively seeking acquisitions that can enhance its distribution channels for much-needed drugs, increase its market demographics, looks to reduce operational costs, and improve bottom-line results. Throughout 2023, Stavros tells viewers they intend to build necessary office infrastructures and hire key personnel to handle the expected growth from its operations.

Mr. Alain Ghiai, CEO at Sekur Private Data, Ltd.

Alain gives viewers a “Year-in-Review” about Sekur’s operational status. 2022 was a great year in reducing marketing costs, increasing product offerings, opening new international markets, offering new business enterprise solutions, developing B2B reseller agreements, and maintaining good cash-on-hand.

Recently, the Company’s Green Star Lab’s received an NSF/ANSI 455-2 Dietary Supplement GMP Certification. Stuart explains that only about 1% of entities qualify for this certification, which is a considerable accomplishment, giving consumers confidence that all in-house and private-label products have the utmost quality controls. Dietary supplements, hemp, CBD, capsules, oils, gummies, vapes, skincare, and beauty products have the highest possible production standards at GGII and its subsidiaries. The Company Hemp Box Vending subsidiary has over 600 machine kiosks, offering various GGII products, a unique vending operation like no other in the industry. Stuart states that 37 states legalized medical marijuana and 21states legalized recreational uses, and over 64 million Americans use some CBD product; the industry growth is fantastic and expected to continue.

On New to The Street TV’s Weekly Sekur Privacy & Sekur Security Segment, internationally acclaimed internet privacy expert Mr. Alain Ghiai, CEO at Sekur Private Data Ltd.  (OTCQX: SWISF) (CSE: SKUR) (FRA: GDT0) talks with TV Host and Multi-media Journalist Ana Berry about the problems with face recognition apps that people use for entertainment, like the Lensa AI app. Ok, it might be fun to age-generate your face recognition into the future and build unique characters featuring kings, queens, and superheroes. Still, it would be best if you asked yourselves how safe the App is in managing your facial recognition data. Alain states that these platforms all share open-source Big Tech platforms known for cybersecurity breaches, and these platforms sell and rent your data profiles. The same problem is ongoing with those DNA services investigating your ancestry; they also share data. Each open-platform account has vulnerability issues, directly or indirectly causing all sorts of data compromises. Big-tech platforms make over $185B a year off data sales, and you get nothing in return, or worse yet, hacked. Alain says anyone using Big-tech open-source email and texting platforms for sensitive and private communications has become a part of what he calls “Data Slavery.” The best possible way to reduce your social media footprint and communicate privately and securely is to become a Sekur product subscriber. Using military encryptions that are invisibilities to hackers for a reasonable monthly fee, a subscriber is confident that electronic communications are secure and private. The Company’s business and servers are in Switzerland, a country with stringent privacy laws, making it illegal to sell data or share communications. Alain is offering 50% off subscription fees; if you subscribe yearly, you automatically get two months free, so the overall savings are about 67%. Use PROMO CODE: Sekur50. Alain looks forward to a beautiful holiday time and looks forward to bringing more updates into 2023.

Straight-up document scanning, basic connectivity
I focus on printer and scanner technology and reviews. I have been writing about computer technology since well before the advent of the internet. I have authored or co-authored 20 books—including titles in the popular Bible, Secrets, and For Dummies series—on digital design and desktop publishing software applications. My published expertise in those areas includes Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Photoshop, and QuarkXPress, as well as prepress imaging technology. (Over my long career, though, I have covered many aspects of IT.)
Brother's entry-level ADS-3100 is a capable sheetfed document scanner that's a good value for home, hybrid, or small offices and workgroups.
At the bottom of the pecking order in Brother’s recent release of a wave of sheetfed desktop document scanners, its ADS-3100 High-Speed Desktop Scanner ($329.99) is relatively fast and reliably accurate. It lists for about $40 less than the next model up, the ADS-3300W, but you give up quite a lot for the savings: network connectivity, a touch-screen control panel, and support for smartphones and other handheld devices, to name a few convenience and productivity features. That’s not to say, however, that small or home offices that plug the ADS-3100 into a solitary computer’s USB port (or scan directly to a USB flash, solid-state, or hard drive) won’t get good value from this scanner. Competition among entry-level and mid-volume document scanners is formidable, but if your business doesn’t demand networkability or wireless scanning, this Brother model should serve you well.
The ADS-3100 is the last of five new sheetfed document scanners from Brother to reach our test bench. The ADS-4900W is the high-volume flagship (and an Editors’ Choice award winner), and the midrange ADS-4700W, ADS-4300N, and ADS-3300W are excellent as well. They are all the same size. The five Brothers measure 7.5 by 11.7 by 8.5 inches (HWD) with their paper trays closed—like most scanners in this category, they double or triple their desktop footprint with trays extended for use—and weigh 6.2 to 6.5 pounds each.
This scanner has too many direct competitors to list here, so we’ll name just four key ones: the Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1400, the Epson WorkForce ES-400 II, the Raven Select Document Scanner, and the Canon imageFormula R50 Office Docment Scanner. The ADS-3100 falls short of some rivals by lacking a color touch screen. Its control panel holds only four buttons (Power, Stop/Cancel, Scan to USB, Scan to PC) and a few LED status indicators. This and the ADS-4300N are the only members of the new Brother quintet to lack touch screens.
You can scan to a variety of PDF types (high-compression, image, searchable, secure, or signed), as well as PDF/A, single-page and multipage TIFF, BMP, plain text, and Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint formats. The scanner’s maximum resolution is 600 dots per inch (1,200dpi interpolated), and it supports document sizes ranging from 2 inches square to 8.5 inches wide by 16.4 feet long, with 24-bit color depth. 
Online scanning destinations include cloud and social media sites and FTP sites, as well as local drives and email. It’s easy to access most social media and cloud sites, though the ADS-3100 is preconfigured to support Google Drive, OneDrive, Evernote, Box, Dropbox, OneNote, SharePoint Online, and Expensify.
The ADS-3100 features a 60-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF) for sending single- and double-sided multipage documents to the scanner. Brother rates its daily duty cycle at 6,000 scans. These specs match the ADS-4300N’s; the ADS-4700W has a larger 80-page ADF, while the more robust ADS-4900W combines a 100-sheet feeder and 9,000-scan daily duty cycle.
These specs are more or less average among low-end document scanners. The Raven Select, Epson ES-400 II, and ScanSnap iX1400 all have 50-sheet ADFs, while the Canon R50’s holds 60 sheets. The Fujitsu has the same 6,000-scan duty rating as the Brother; the Epson and Canon are rated for 4,000 and the Raven for only 2,000 daily scans.
Of the five new Brother document scanners, the ADS-3100 is the only one without a wired or wireless network interface—its sole connectivity option, apart from the USB Type-A port around back for scanning directly to storage devices, is a USB 3.0 (or 2.0) cable. That leaves out smartphones and tablets.
The software bundle doesn’t reflect this printer’s lower-end status, though. It includes Brother iPrint&Scan (desktop) for Windows and Mac, Brother ScanEssentials Lite for Windows, Kofax Power PDF for Windows, Presto! BizCard for Windows and Mac, Image Folio Processing Software for Windows, and Kofax PaperPort SE with OCR for Windows.
iPrint&Scan is an all-in-one printer interface that’s also compatible with Brother’s single-function scanners and printers. It lets you create and manage workflow profiles that you can choose with the front-panel buttons.
ScanEssentials Lite, meanwhile, is a trimmed-down version of another Brother scanner interface that’s also a document-management and financial-data archiving application. Kofax PaperPort also combines a scanner interface with document-management features, among them its own optical character recognition (OCR), workflow profiles, and automated naming conventions.
Presto! BizCard is what it sounds like, a business-card-scanning and contact-archiving program, and Image Folio is an image-capturing program designed to help you scan, edit, enhance, and print photos. You also get four third-party drivers—TWAIN, WIA, ISIS, and Sane—for scanning directly into many compatible applications, such as Adobe Acrobat and Photoshop and the Microsoft 365 suite.
Like its siblings (barring the flagship ADS-4900W), the ADS-3100 is rated at 40 one-sided (simplex) pages per minute (ppm) and 80 two-sided (duplex) images per minute (ipm, where each page side is counted as an image). I put those speed figures to the test using iPrint&Scan over a USB connection to our Intel Core i5 testbed running Windows 10 Pro. (I also ran a few tests with some of the other apps and got similar results, though scanning to USB flash drives is notably faster; see more about how we test scanners.)
First, I clocked the ADS-3100 as it scanned our standard one-sided 25-page and two-sided 25-page (50 sides) documents and then converted and saved them as image PDF files. The scanner managed 41.6ppm and 81.3ipm, barely beating its ratings. The competitors mentioned here did similarly, with the ADS-4900W being faster (68.7ppm and 125.4ipm) and the Epson ES-400 II being slower (37.7ppm and 66.7ipm).
Next, I timed the Brother as it scanned our two-sided, 25-page hard-copy document and saved it to the more versatile searchable PDF format. The ADS-3100 finished the job in 38 seconds, on the high side of average. The ADS-4900W and the HP ScanJet Pro N4000 snw1 took 34 seconds and 24 seconds respectively, while the Canon R50 took 37 seconds. The Fujitsu made it in 40 seconds, versus 41 for the Raven Select and 44 for the Epson. Frankly, unless you spend most of your day scanning stacks of lengthy documents, these scores should be fast enough for most offices.
Besides, how well a scanner reads text is more important than how quickly it does so. Most document scanners today can convert printed text to searchable PDF format with no errors down to 5 or 6 points. The Brother ADS-3100 was perfectly average, managing scans down to 6-point type problem-free in both our Arial and Times New Roman font tests. Of the other machines discussed here, only the Canon R50 yielded a different result: down to 5 points for Arial, and 6 points for Times New Roman. You’re not likely to encounter text smaller than 10 points in most real-world business documents.
I also scanned a few stacks of business cards into Presto! BizCard, with predictable results: The software does a fine job of digitizing text and figures and putting them into the proper fields in a contacts database (or exporting them to Outlook, Gmail, and other contact management or personal information manager apps). Finally, to see how well the Brother handled images, I scanned several photos to Image Folio. Most were well-detailed, with bright and accurate colors, showing the ADS-3100 can serve as a decent sheetfed photo scanner or alternative to the Epson FastFoto FF-680W and Canon imageFormula RS40. If you have a shoebox of photos stashed under the bed or on a closet shelf, the Image Folio software should deliver additional value.
If you can live without networked or mobile scanning, the Brother ADS-3100 may be right for you, especially if you also have a bunch of photos to archive (though it’s more of a document than a photo scanner). Without wireless or Ethernet connectivity, however, it’s really more of a personal machine for relatively low scanning volumes, around a few hundred per day. (You’d have to fill its 60-sheet ADF 100 times per day, or 14 times per hour, to reach its 6,000-scan limit.) Under the right conditions, though, the ADS-3100 is without question a fine entry-level-to-midrange document scanner.
Brother's entry-level ADS-3100 is a capable sheetfed document scanner that's a good value for home, hybrid, or small offices and workgroups.
